OF INTEREST: How the Body Knows Its Mind

Tuesday, January 27, 2015
6:00 PM

Location: National Museum of Health + Medicine Chicago

Illinois Science Council is hosting Dr. Sian Beilock, of University of Chicago, for its first program of 2015 at a cool new science museum. Dr. Beilock will talk about her research in psychology and her new book, “How the Body Knows Its Mind” about how our body and our surroundings affect how we think, learn, and behave. Simple actions can have big effects on our ability to learn, perform and feel our best - we just have to know what they are.

Dr. Beilock’s talk will be at the new National Museum of Health + Medicine Chicago, a unique space in the Loop that enhances access to scientific data through large-scale digitization projects.

This program is free but seating is limited so registration is required at http://BrainScience.eventbrite.com.
